A landslide occured in Eastern Uganda after heavy rains, which has killed at least 41 people. The death toll could increase as rescue teams are still searching the Mount Elgon and eastern Bududa district area for the many people still missing.

Rivers on high ground burst their banks, sending water, mud and rock cascading below and sweeping homes away. The landslide also brought large boulders and trees down onto roads blocking routes for relief workers.
